The Reduction of the Revenue

Two letters have been made public showing
why Speaker Carlisle did not entertain mo-
ton 10 repeal the tobacco tax. The first let
ter is signed by Representative Wise, John l..
Henderson and Randall. asking. ''at the in
stance of many democratic members OF the
House, Ira. the Speaker recognize some dem
ocrat who would move to suspend the rules
for the purpose of repeating all internal reve
nue. taxes On tobacco. Many republicans. the
signers say, are anxious to make such mo-
ton hut if permitted TO do 50 that party
would get the credit, which ''woUa almost
certainly cause the loss to the democracy Of
not less than two southern states at tie gener-
al elections in the year 1885, The signers
also declare that 4 large majority Of the House
would. in their belief vote for the proposed
motion.
Speaker Carlisle, in lis answer, recalls the
efforts made by the Morrison and Randall men
to reach an understanding Oil the whole sub
iect Of tariff and revenue reform, and says
among other things we propose to submit
the entire subject to caucus Of our political
ties would abide by the results of lis action,
and in case that course was not satisfactory to
you we Informed you that we would At any
time, upon a reasonable notice, support a mo-
ton to 20 into the committee of the whole on
The state of the union for the purpose # con
siderng House bill No. 9,7o2, introduced by
Mr.. Randall at the last session. That bill re-
lates to internal revenue as well As taliT taxes
and proposes to repeal the entire internal rev.
enue tax on manufactured tobacco, snuff and
cigars. We have received no response to that
communication, and consider that it would
not be proper, under the circumstances tor me
to agree to couise Of action which would
present for the consideration OF Che House a
simple proposition for the repeal Of the inter
nal revenue tax on tobacco. Snu Il and cigars
to the exclusion Of all other measures for the
reduction Of taxation.

Protection

The results Of what is called the pro-
tective policy, says the New York Star
are now plain enough.
1t has built up the cotton fields and
the wheat fields of India.
1t has driven our pork and butter out
of Europe.
1t is persuading France to exclude our
corn and whe4t and othor agricultural
products.
1t is persuading US to spend millions
upon armamcnts, and to follow the other
nations of the earth in the policy Of jeal-
ousy, hatred and war
In return for all these evils what has it
given US? A few strick y manufactures
which cannot stand alone, and a million
working people on the strike.
Verify this is the protection which the
Welt gives to the lamb.

Upper MARLBOROUGH:
European War Fever.

The conviction seems to be growing
that Germany is determined to have war
Bismarck will not be reconci'ed. He Is
angered beyond measure ut the evidence
that France two months ago att mpted
to form an alliance with Russia and blot
Germany from the map OF Europe
There must be meaning in the fact that
nearly 100, 600 Of the German reserves
have been called out, and are now in
readiness for active service If Bismarck
does not intend that his army shall IN
wade France, there is no reason or sense
in the vast military preparations that are
being made.
The London Standard, the organ OF
British ministry has just published an
article taking the ground that while Eng
land will continue to guarantee the indie
pendence of Belgium, this may not pre-
vent the passage of troops through her
territory. This gives rise to the we'll
grounded suspicion that the German ar
my will be pushed through Belgium and
attack France from an unexpected quar-
ter and on omparatively unprotected
border. In this way the German army
would avoid the necessity of assalllng the
most formidable French fortresses in
front There is unusual significance also
in the fact that agents from England are
now on Their way to this country, with
orders to purchase large number OF
cavalry and artillery horses, the larger
portion of which the blue grass region
of Kentucky is expected to furnish Evi-
IDENTIFY powerful agencies are at work, and
the war cloud seems to be getting daily
darker and more threatening. As soon
as France and Germany commence hos
tilit,es, the chances are that almost the
whole of Europe will become involved.
The reports of the adustu emit Of the
difficulties between Russia ard Austria
are again contradicted in words, as well
as by the continued military preparations
still in progress in those countries. Al
together the situation is critical, and the
present year may become memorable ID
history for destructive and bloody wars.
